I'm Radu, a software developer based in London, UK.
I'm a T-shaped developer, with a strong focus on UX and product development. I like to build cool stuff and learn new things. Some of them are still online.
Profesionally, I usually work with early stage startups, helping them build products from 0 to 1.
- 🔭 I'm currently building on SICAP - a search app for the public sector to find information about the Romanian government procurement spending.
- it's built with Next.js and Elasticsearch and it stores more than 100gb of public procurement data.
- frontend hosted on Vercel and the Elasticsearch cluster is hosted using docker swarm with 3 nodes.
- 🌱 I'm currently learning about ETL processes and data platforms (especially Meltano and dbt).
- check out my PNRR minisite about the Romanian PNRR program. It uses evidence.dev to power the data visualisations.
- 💬 Ask me about anything related to software development, product development, startups, or the Romanian government spending.
